Chapter 66: Pay up If You Want to Fight, This Is My Principle
Translator: Strivon Editor: Strivon
Qin Fen didn’t need to do much thinking at all. He simply chose the Mag Drive Flying Sword and the neo martial art the Origin Compressing Art. Then, without putting much thought into it as well, he simply put the Mag Drive Flying Sword in the system’s auction program. These were nice goods. Qin Fen should be able to sell it for a decent price.
Upon logging out from the system and taking off his helmet, Qin Fen felt his entire body assaulted with weariness. He hadn’t really felt it during his happiness in receiving the rewards from the fight just now, but weariness had come to him in the moment he logged out.
After letting out a long breath, Qin Fen gently turned with his neck. He thought about the high intensity battle in the War God Arena not too long ago. Military training was quite easy in comparison.
————-
Having just logged out from the network, Qin Fen gently warmed up his body, alleviating his body’s fatigue. Then, by habit, he opened the desktop computer allocated to him from the military. He logged into the three-star forums as a guest.
It was only now that he discovered that the last three experts who would always seize top three in the three-star arena didn’t participate in the competition this time. The reason was unknown.
Many people were discussing this on the forums, saying that the person who seized the title of War God this time was just lucky. Soon, similar posts were made on the forums, their numbers nearing a hundred.
Soon after the appearance of these posts, Leopard Head suddenly made posts as well. He possessed some reputation in the three-star area. He gave those mocking and ridiculing people a good scorching before bringing out a recording of Qin Fen’s fights.
Qin Fen’s straightforward methods of killing, as well as his concealment techniques where people didn’t know how he just faded without a trace, completely shut the mouths of these mocking and ridiculing people like good kids.
Quite a few people began to approve of this Thirty-Six Hours. Most of them left messages saying that though Thirty-Six Hours’s strength might not be the strongest among three-stars, very few people in the three-star level could be his match in terms of killing efficiency and techniques.
A lot of people agreed with such comments. There were even some people who said that this Thirty-Six Hours didn’t understand what martial skill meant at all. Perhaps he was a killer in reality. What he did wasn’t martial skill, at best it could be called skill in killing.
Of course, there were still quite a bit of people who didn’t recognize Qin Fen’s strength. They said that Thirty-Six Hours needed to fight with the previous War Gods in order to ascertain his qualifications.
These were just posts on the forums. No one ever expected that some of the posters would actually be the previous top three experts who seized the top three positions of War God the most in previous competitions.
They all left messages after seeing Qin Fen’s video. They wanted to find a time to swap pointers with Thirty-Six Hours. As for whether swapping pointers was done publicly or privately, the choice was left to Thirty-Six Hours.
Qin Fen didn’t feel the need to retort against the doubters. However, he felt interested in replying when the three major predecessors of War God left messages.
Login ID, message: “We can swap pointers, but there’s a condition. You will need to pay a swapping pointers fee, otherwise I won’t fight.”
Logout, then login. Entering guest viewing mode.
Qin Fen’s message was already replied to a couple dozen times by the time he logged out. They were all of the same flavor, scolding at Thirty-Six Hours for lacking the character of a martial artist.
As these scalding posts appeared, soon someone posted that there was a very valuable item up for auction on the three-star auction channel. And this item was marked as the reward for winning the War God competition.
The player actually auctioned the prize. Many more people began to denounce Thirty-Six Hours. Did this man fall into greed for money? Did he just recognize money?
Looking at the condemning posts, Qin Fen actually wasn’t that angry. Only those who hadn’t truly suffered in life, those who hadn’t experienced being constantly on the move for tomorrow’s meal in the day to day life, would act noble and virtuous, believing that money was nothing.
“Those who don’t have mouths to fee don’t know the costs of life’s daily necessities.” Qin Fen laughed as he looked at the other posts. In this War God Arena competition, there were many battlefields sectioned off from one another. In these battlefields, there were many different sorts of martial arts being used by people. Qin Fen hadn’t seen them a lot of them before, and he wanted to gain some first-hand knowledge for himself.
“Old Qin!” Deng Biao, who was in the bed next to Qin Fen, patted Qin Fen on the shoulder hard. He whispered in Qin Fen’s ear, “To tell the truth, us brothers really respect you! You’re a man of steel! You’re really far too steely! You’re actually so callous that you let such a beautiful chick stand and wait outside the door for so long. You haven’t even given her a glance….”
“What? Oh!” Qin Fen turned his head and lifted his hand to scratch his temples in embarrassment. “I really forgot about her. Thank you for the reminder.”
Qin Fen shut down his computer, got off his bed, and walked toward the exit. This left Deng Biao to sit alone on his own bed, scratching his head flabbergasted, “What kind of person is he? He actually forgot about a beauty for the sake of the Sky Martial Battle Network.”
Some one on a different bed nodded as well, “This woman is a natural beauty. The uniform is to put her attractiveness under control! If this girl was with me….”
“Hush….” Deng Biao hurriedly told the person to silent himself. Then he whispered, “Though Old Qin is a good natured person, but he has some basic issues when it comes too it. He has a temper, so be careful. He might just remove you….”
The people living in the same room as Qin Fen naturally had a better understanding of him compared to the other companies. Perhaps there was no one who dared conclude who was the most capable of fighting within the room, but if the question came down to the two people who was most capable of fighting?
Everyone would answer: Qin Fen! Du Peng!
Under the moonlight, Lin Jiaxuan stared off in the distance, lost in thought. Her arms were around her chest, and her hair gently drifted from a cold breeze. She had quite a different charm in these circumstances without savageness.
Qin Fen saw this seen upon walking out from the room. Lin Jiaxuan’s figure suddenly blurred a bit. In this moment, it was as if the woman standing under the moonlight was Song Jia instead of Lin Jiaxuan.
Lin Jiaxuan’s arms quickly fell to her sides when she saw Qin Fen walk out from the room. She wanted him to walk over quickly, and in this moment, Song Jia’s image faded away from her body.
This was Lin Jiaxuan, not Song Jia. Qin Fen snapped back to reality, took a deep breath, and speculated to himself that he must be tired. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have hallucinated it.
It must be known that a true martial artist possessed a steadfast heart! If one’s heart wasn’t firm, how could one’s fist be firm?
“I made you wait a long time.” Qin Fen was the first to break the silence between them. He asked, “Can I ask if there’s anything I can help you with?”
After two hours of ‘long’ waiting, Lin Jiaxuan was no longer embarrassed. She never thought that there would actually be someone who would make her wait by herself outside the door for two hours.
“The Jade Girl Heart Sutra I cultivate in. Seems like there’s some problems.”
“Oh,” Qin Fen nodded his head in response. The Jade Girl Heart Sutra was a high level martial art. It wasn’t a martial art that ordinary families could use. If there was a problem, one should go seek out the publishers of the martial art, the Sacred Martial Hall. Otherwise, she should be looking for the master who imparted the Jade Girl Heart Sutra to her in the first place.
Lin Jiaxuan saw that Qin Fen merely nodded his head in response, as if the matter was of no concern to him, and her brow furrowed in anger, “The problem only occurred after I met you that night. I want to ask if you know the Jade Girl Heart Sutra?”
Feeling that Lin Jiaxuan was in an angry mood, Qin Fen really wanted to turn around and leave; he had saved her, after all. However, a thought came to mind. She had waited for two hours here, and she also had that helpless appearance. This made the unhappiness in Qin Fen’s heart lightened quite a bit.
